1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The auxin-binding protein 1 (ABP1) has already been proved to be an extracellular receptor of auxin in single cell systems. Protoplasts of maize coleoptiles respond to auxin with an increase in volume. The 2-naphthaleneacetic acid (2-NAA), an inactive auxin analog, acts as an anti-auxin in protoplast swelling, as it suppresses the effect of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Antibodies raised against box a of ABP1 induce protoplast swelling in the absence of auxin. This response is inhibited by pre-incubation with 2-NAA. The effect of 2-NAA on swelling induced by agonistic antibodies appears to depend on the binding characteristics of the antibody. ScFv12, an antibody directed against box a, box c and the C-terminal domain of ABP1 also exhibits auxin-agonist activity which is, however, not abolished by 2-NAA. Neither does 2-NAA affect the activity of the C-terminal peptide of ABP1, which is predicted to interact with putative binding proteins of ABP1. These results support the view that box a and box c of ABP1 are auxin-binding domains.
